Beautiful design hotel. However the room is rather basic. Dinner and breakfast buffet provide lots of choices. Well presented but average in taste.

Best Hotel to stay in Kandy overlooking the Mahaweli River. Misty mountains and the cold breeze is the finest. Rooms are good and friendly service. Their food is at best.

Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms. All of the people are incredibly helpful and generous with their time and advice.Comfortable, great food and great views , what more can you ask. All the staff were genuinely helpful and informative. Lots to see and do close by. An ideal base for the Kandy town. The hotel is a notable local venue, and was used for a wedding party while we were there. This was an added entertainment and added to the experience.

I liked the atmosphere very much. The welcome was good, the staff was very polite and friendly. A steward accompanied us to our room and gave us a brief description of the place. On arrival we were tired and hungry, and it was a pleasant surprise to find that there was a complementary high tea. Dinner and breakfast was sumptuous. The hotel has a lot of interesting little gardens which can be explored during the day and even the swimming pool is remarkable, with a little baby pool and an artificial waterfall. There is a tennis court adjacent to the pool. There is also a children’s play area. overall, a very pleasant stay.

For some period one of the few hotels situated in Kandy with star class category. With it’s location near to Mahaveli river and the Thennekumbura bridge it has a magnificent view.

The food was ok and the service is at a adequate level. Newly built rooms and banquet halls to meet customer demands. Valet parking is available.

it's a wonderful place! however some of the services needs to be enhanced, example : the tennis court is at the edge of a hill and balls could easily drop and be lost (u have to pay 200 rupees for each lost ball!! ) , the buffet is not waw but bit overpriced.

Very nice hotel for any type of event or occasion and with a selection of rooms available with very nice views it is one of the top hotels in Kandy. We went once for a dinner and another occasion for tea and on both occasions we were very pleased with the service and the food. With a wide variety of foods to select from and you are spoilt for choice if you are attending a buffet or they have themed nights to suit popular occasions. They have very nice views from the hotel and I would love to go there again.

Very nice complex, staff are friendly and helpful. A couple of minor issues were dealt with promptly. We had a hotel driver take us on an excursion and he could have been a bit more attentive to what we asked for rather than pushing his own suggestions several times after we already declined

Earl's regency located on the banks of river, all rooms have separate gallaries which gives a nice view of green hills of Kandy city. Swimming pool & gym facilities are nice staff is courteous. Breakfast & dinner were with lots of varieties of cusines suitable for veg as non vegetarian person. Listening Live piano playing was a additional treat while having a dinner.

To start with, the hotel staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. The rooms were more than satisfactory with an outstanding bathroom. Hotel has many facilities like swimming pool, spa, tennis court and gym. The masseuse seemed very experienced. I also had a surprise birthday arranged and it was successfully carried out with the fullest cooperation of the staff. Also not to forget, the restaurant had a wide range of food to select from and there were international chefs.

Well designed hotel infrastructure, feels the impression of sync with nature. Breakfast is sufficiently diverse and plentiful. Staff are helpful. Gym and Pool are in good condition and well equipped. Takes about Rs. 400 for a tuc tuc ride from Kandy lake region (city side).

Great hotel located in Tennekubura Kandy, which is 20 minutes drive from the city centre. Facilities are great and staff is friendly. Rooms are spacy. There are complimentary sweets and some fruits. There are enough space to accommodate large crowd to host a big conference.

One of the most famous and largest hotels in Kandy with all facilities a luxury hotel usually have. Very spacious and quiet surroundings are ideal for almost anything from a weekend getaway to a school/ university reunion. This place is not economical but in my opinion, it is worth the money. Rooms are also in very good condition. The valet service is sometimes a bit annoying as they refuse to park your vehicle if you came here to attend an event. I've run in to this problem several times when I came to weddings, where they ask us to park it ourselves and same when leaving. They just show where the vehicle is and ask us to take it.

Nice 5* hotel, little away from busy Kandy City. 20 mins drive away from Kandy city and this depends on the traffic time. Have very beautiful view from the hotel. Friendly staff and good food.

We had a beautiful room on 4th floor overlooking pool and valley.
Staff were all wonderful and the buffet breakfast and dinner were among the best we have had in 2 months of travelling in India & Sri Lanka. The pool and gardens are absolutely superb.

Great place for a luxurious stay and a lovely holiday. They have a great swimming pool and good food options. The staff is courteous. It's a bit distant from the main city but that adds to its charm

We booked the luxury room but the view was of a tree so stayed in the Junior Suite. It's worth the upgrade. It has an outdoor Jacuzzi and indoor one as well. The entire room is spacious and well laid out. Comfortable and cozy - a great romantic getaway. One note on the room service menu - the food wasn't all that good - one exception was the herb chicken. The buffet was not too bad.
It's a major venue for weddings - you'll generally see two a day :-)

One of the best hotels in Kandy.

Great hospitality. Great amenities. Great food. Great rooms and washrooms. Great service by the staff. 24 hours assistance. Everything was perfect apart from where the room was. Had to take two lifts from here and there to reach our room. A bit hard to find it till you get used to where the room is. But except that, everything was perfect.

Keep up the good work!

Lovely ambience, rooms, location and features tennis courts, expansive pool, spa amongst others. Bathrooms feature a tub along with shower. Rooms also have a sit out area. The main reception is pretty inviting and is maintained well. A place that I wouldn't mind revisiting inspite of the somewhat higher cost.

This is a nice place. When you enter to upper floors you can see beautify views. The 5 star hotel has good lunch options. Better serving procedure.
One thing to highlight. Main entrance vehicle handling and facilities are poor. In the morning many tourists try to get out to visit nearby places. At the time many busses and other vehicles rush on to main entrance. People face difficulties. So that has to be re looked.

We stayed in this wonderful upcountry castle for two days. We were warmly welcomed in the spacious lobby decorated with traditional upcountry (Kanda Udarata) decorations. Although we reserved non-smoking deluxe room, the first room we were ushered smell badly with cigarette smoke. However, upon our complaint hotel management promptly provided us a new room. The deluxe room was much spacious with upcountry interior decoration with a balcony overlooking the garden.

Restaurant was well organized with friendly staff and food was delicious with vast range of variations. My wife wanted to celebrate my birthday, and her request for the birthday cake was met more than the level of anticipation. Overall our stay at Eral’s Regency in Kandy gave us wonderful memories to hold on.

I visited this Hotel with my office friends and families. Place is a calm and peaceful . They have given a good service in the first day but in the second day breakfast I ask for separate table for me and my wife first they agreed and said they will arrange it, but after while they seems ignore it serve me a common table. When I ask they told it's not for us. Though food is good didn't have variety. All in all I'll give 7 out of 10 for meals and services

Great food, lovely buffet. Nice view. But car park is really small for five star hotel. For that I'm giving only 3 stars.

Had a luxury room for the honeymoon package. The room was very good with Jacuzzi and bath robes, etc. Used the pool at around 7.30 pm, as it would be opened until 10 pm. It was very attractive. Did some wandering around hotel premises too. Really nice atmosphere. However, dining was not that pleasant here. Though there were buffet at breakfast and dinner, lunch was a set menu. Also at the dinner, the table was not properly prepared and the waiter who was serving us seemed to forget the orders we give and so on. It seemed more of a problem with that particular guy. However, the overall stay was very pleasant. Also, a tennis court was also there which we weren't able to use due to the time limitations. Hope to use it the next time.

Am confused by this place. It looks swanky but some experiences befuddled me.

There was no shower curtain for the jacuzzi tub, nor was shower gel available. The dinner buffet had a lot of variety, but the backup power didn't come up immediately when the main power went.

Housekeeping struggled to find adapters that would work with our device chargers.

A mixed bag of a place.

A lovely hotel set in beautiful scenery just outside the centre of Kandy city. Comfortable, quiet good sized rooms and a good breakfast and buffet restaurant, there is also an authentic Indian restaurant and a bar area which serves snacks and afternoon teas. A relaxing place to stay with good service.
